We just finished our annual "Bachelor Party without a Bachelor". Seven of us from elementary and middle school made the trip this year. For the past 6 or 8 years, we always stayed at Bally's. It was cheap, on the strip and had a big enough suite for us to kick back and hang. Last year was the final straw. The place was old and tired and the Sports Book was closed on Final Four weekend.
Planet Hollywood was a huge step up in quality but still reasonably priced. Fabulous location on the strip. Our suite was huge, decorated with Hollywood memorabilia, 180 degree windows overlooking Paris's Eiffel Tower and the fountains at Bellagio.
The place is laid out quite well. They have lots of casino space, a groovy "Pleasure Pit" area with lingerie clad dancers, and a vibe similar to Hard Rock. Oh, the pool area rocked!!
As we collectively flipped off Bally's from the window, we realized our money goes to the same Harrah's Corp., but wadda-ya-gunna-do?
